I am trying to install Lyx on a RedHat 6.1 Linux machine.
[root@cbe207 xforms]# make install
cp FORMS/libforms.a /usr/lib;chmod 644 /usr/lib/libforms.a
cp DESIGN/fdesign /usr/local/bin; chmod 711 /usr/local/bin/fdesign
cp fd2ps/fd2ps /usr/local/bin; chmod 711 /usr/local/bin/fd2ps
cp FORMS/forms.h /usr/include;\
chmod 644 /usr/include/forms.h
cp FORMS/xforms.5 /usr/man/man5; chmod 644 /usr/man/man5/xforms.5
cp DESIGN/fdesign.1 /usr/man/man1; chmod 644 /usr/man/man1/fdesign.1
cp fd2ps/fd2ps.1 /usr/man/man1; chmod 644 /usr/man/man1/fd2ps.1
seemed to go OK.
[root@cbe207 FORMS]# find / -name "libforms*"
/usr/lib/libforms.a
/usr/lib/libforms.so.0.88
/usr/lib/libforms.so
ldconfig -v
But there seems to be a problem with the xforms installer.
I did "make demo", and got a string of error messages, and no
executable demos. The errors are like this:
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: [folder] Error 1 (ignored)
gcc -c -O -I../FORMS -I/usr/X11R6/include -Ifd popup.c
gcc -O -s popup.o -o popup -L../FORMS -lforms -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lm
../FORMS/libforms.so: undefined reference to `_xstat'
I am not sure what to do at this point to get xforms installed. Any ideas
as to what is wrong and how to fix? Thanks very much for any help!
Bill
